Hi everyone - you are all very busy!! Our next fair is 22nd/23rd Mountstewart - nothing in between! Belle, remind me when your fair is again? We would happily donate something for the raffle but not sure if we can come. let me know and I can always post something down to you if we cant make it.

It's no. 2's birthday today. I had been secretly knitting a toy for her for the last few weeks a gorgeous rabbit that looked as if it would be small but has turned out large and floppy (now now you naughty ladies!!) but didnt manage to finish the dress in time, so it is nice that I can now finish the dress NOT in secret - was getting fed up of not starting knitting til 9pm and knitting like mad til 11pm with eyes half shut, AND of lying to no. 2 that it was a strange shaped tea cosy that someone had requested!!

Who else is doing Mountstewart and where will you all be? We are in the marquee at the front of the building...

Im not doing mount stewart.......Its my Daughters communion on the 22nd....then on the 23rd she has to go to mass wearing her dress again!!:o.......I have warned everyone if they smell burning....it will be me smoking from the shoes up!!!!:rotfl:

Hi everyone, I'm new to this forum so forgive me if I post in the wrong place!! I'm organising a craft fair on 19th June in Conlig, Co.down in the church hall. I'm looking for any of you that would like to purchase a stall.
I'm still putting the details together so anything you need to know just ask. I work for Praxis in a respite unit in Conlig for children with disabilities and we're hoping to raise some much needed funds for equipment. I'd welcome any advice / suggestions from all of you. I'm hoping to get a good mix of crafters at it. Let me know what else you all need to know about it. I haven't decided on the price of the stalls yet so any ideas oin that are most welcome. You can contact me through here or email me: [EMAIL="ingyell@hotmail.co.uk"]ingyell@hotmail.co.uk[/EMAIL]
